Episode 11 is going to inspire you to look at ways to create both passive and active income streams to sell your art and make money go from hobby to business! SO maybe you’re new to having a creative business, or perhaps you’ve been selling your art for a little while now and are working on ways to create a diverse stream of income. Regardless of where you are at, I’m sure you’ll be inspired to pick a few ways that you generate revenue from your art and make sure to have a balance of both passive and active income streams! Episode 11 is all about the beauty of making a living from your art and even making money while your sleep. Or paint. Or binge your favorite Netflix show!  For years, I have taken multiple online business courses to help me grow and build my business so that it suits my needs, my schedule, and my income goals. Now, I haven’t always had success with what I’ve planned to do in my business, but when I find something that works, I feed that stream as much as a I can! Creating passive and active income streams is something that I’ve blogged about, taught in a few of my classes and now am talking about here on the podcast because I believe that if you have a creative business, especially have a presence online, then you NEED to have a diverse income stream to help sustain you year around.
